Seniors of 1945 The Senior Class of 1945 is the biggest of any we have had in DeMotte High School. When we entered school there were about 54 of us. During the years past we have lost some of our students hut in their place we have had some new additions to our class. There are now thirty of us. Due to the war three of our class-members are now serving in the armed forces. Perhaps before long there will be more gone from the class. The three are James Fieldhouse, John Louis Walstra, and William Ely. We give them our best wishes in their new careers. We have had a lot of fun. There never was anything doing hut what we were in it. We had fun galore torturing the Freshmen during the Freshman initiation. And the poor teachers, when we look back and think how we treated some of them we often wonder why they didn’t give us more paddlings than they did.
